Augustin Daly's “7-20-8.”
The sale of seats for Daly's “7-20-8”
will begin at Davis Bros’, this morning.
“Beven-Twenty-Eight” is the catalogue
number of the picture of a young lady
and her dog which hast en exhibited in
an art gallery in London. The hair of the
young lady, “Flos” (Miss Bijou Heron . is
a “golden blonde.” butin the picture it has
been painted in black curls. An English
and an American with a sort of “go
as-you-please” regard for social etiquette,
fall in love with the picture and set about
finding the original. The English Lord
delegates a Covent Garden maitre de bal
let to do the searching tor him,
while “Courtney Corliss,” the Ameri
can, does his own looking for
the unknown “7-20-8.” The latter’s father,
‘•Mr. Lancelot Bargiss.” is an unpoetic
old gentleman whose wife is ambitious to
have him shine in literature. “Professor
Gasleigh” is the publisher ot a magazine,
and is instrumental in first putting in the
mind of old "Mr. Bargiss” a desire to be
come an author, but be really only shows
him around tow n and makes' him “pay"
lor the instructions. The “Bargiss” party
includes a daughter, “Dora," married to
“Paul Hollyhock.” and a servant, a
unique specimen ot a domestic.
Death of Capt Geo. C. Dent.
Capt. George C. Dent died on the 4th
insi. at his residence, in Glynn county,
near Evelyn, after a brief illness. His loss
will be regretted by all who knew this
esteemed and honorable gentleman. Dur
ing the late war Capt. Dent commanded
a company in that splendid command, the
“First Battalion of Georgia Sharp Shoot
ers,” and was highly distinguished for his
gallantry and devotion to duty. Thor
oughly a gentleman, with a kind, warm
heart, and most generous disposition, he
was highlv esteemed and loved by all of
his comrades. He was wounded at Chica
maugua, on which field the command to
which he was attached won considerable
renown. The deceased was 62 years of
age. and was a son of the late Commodore
Dent, oi the United States navy. He
leaves a widow and several sons
Sank in the Ogeechee River.
The schooner Vineyard, Capt. Sickles,
on her way down the big Ogeecnee river
Saturday morning, loaded with a cargo of
naval stores, when off the Ogeechee bridge
was anchored on account of the heavy
wind. The severe gale caused her to drag
her anchor and drove her upon one of the
piles, knocking a hole in her bottom and
•inking her. The Captain and crew went
aboard the schooner Mary J., Capt. Fitz
gerald, which was also laden with naval,
stores bound to Savannah. This vessel
was also at anchor and the heavy wind
caused her to drag. She, like the Vineyard,
was driven upon the piling, but. it "is re
ported, sustained no damage. Capt. Fitz
gerald came to the city vesterday morn
ing tor assistance and took the train back
last evening. He will stay by the Vine
yard until she is raised.

SUNDAY SCHOOL ANNIVERSARY.
The Seventh Anniversary of the New
Houston Street school Celebrated Yes
terday with Interesting Exercises.
The seventh anniversary of the New
Houston Street Methodist Church Sunday
school w as celebrated yesterday afternoon
with interesting exercises.
The little church was crowded with the
members of the school and congregation
and those who gathered to participate in
the services, and many were unable to
obtain seats or scarcely standing room,
the aisles were so completely filled. The
pulpit and altar and the whole
end of the church in which thev
are located was beautifully decorated. A
floral arch spanned the altar, and on each
side arches extended to the walls. The
pulpit itself was artistically decorated.
The front seats were reserved for the
| children, and their bright little laces
; showed their interest in the Sunday
school and its work.
( The exercises were opened with an ap-
I propriate scripture lesson by the pastor,
j Rev. G. W. Mathews, after which the
1 opening song was sung:
In God I have found a retreat
Where I can securely abide;
Xo refuge nor rest so complete;
And here I intend to reside.
Oh! what comfort it brings.
As my soul sweetly sings;
I am safe from all" danger
While under his wings.
The pastor offered a fervent and devout
prayer when the recitation "I wonder
why ?” was very prettily given by Master
George Staflnell.
This was followed by the song. “Won
derful Grace.” by the school.
Miss Lelia Beville then recited “God’s
Book.” after which a floral representation,
called "The Twelve Months,” was pre
sented by a group of twelve little girls,
bearing baskets and bouquets ot flowers
and reciting appropriate selections. The
exercise concluded with singing, ‘‘Lord,
I am Coming,” and was one of the inter
esting features of the occasion.
The anniversary address, delivered by
Mr. N. H. Olmstead, was an interesting
| review of the history of the school and
Sunday schools from their tirst organiza
i tion. Mr. Otinstead disputed the honor
I accorded to Robert Raikes as the founder
I of Sunday schools, and claimed the great
| founder of Methodism, John Wesley, as
| the author of that branch of Christian
work.
The pastor, Rev. G. W. Mathews, then
! read the Xuperinteudent's report as fol
lows.
“Again we stand at the end of a year,
! and meet to celebrate the fact and to make
an estimate of the year’s progress.
“We feel called upon to thank God that
the year has been an harmonious one. and
that a union of aim has marked the efforts
of the teachers in the Sunday school.
Each Sabbath has brought its pleasure in
the opportunity of meeting in the work of
the Lord. The presence of the spirit has
often been felt in our hearts, and consti
tuted God’s highest indorsement of our
labors.
“In numbers we have made some pro
gress: one hundred and forty scholars were
reported at our last annual Conference,
and twelve children have been brought
into the church. May we not hail this as
a sign that the day is coming when our
teachers will recognize this as the great
aim of Sunday school work. Our library
is in sueh a condition as to call for atten
tion. Although supplied with books in
a measure, it is in need of additions. This
is an important factor in our Sunday
school work; for, although the soul must
first be converted, it must also
be strengthened aud established
in the Lord.” As Superintendent I call
u-’on the parents for their help in our
difficult though pleasant work of training
their children. This work to be a success
must bring them to Christ. It is the
work of all works. How much then do
we need assistance, and how great is the
; necessity of you beinc with us with your
i presence, prayers and personal help.
I Others mav lovingly aud earnestly try to
I do this work, but' they will always feel
| the need of the co-operation that you only
j can give, and l fear that in many ih
| stances the children feel the need of it
: to such an extent that great efforts are
i required to accomplish Christ’s aim.
j Some of the parents are engaged with us
in the work: others no doubt are hindered
I by duties at home as sacred as that which
| calls them here: but those who are classed
with neither of these, and who have tal
: ents, could here be occupied. How will
they answer the call now made upon
them:*”
The officers of the school are:
Superintendent—George P. Harrison.
>ecretary and Treasurer—Lee Burns.
Musical Director —Ely Otto.
Librarian—W. J. Mingeldorff.
Organist—-Miss Lillie Greenlaw.
The Secretary and Treasurer’s report
showed the expenditures for the shool to
have been as follows:
Sunday school supplies 830 50
Conference Secretary 5 00
Missions. ! ...... C 68 00
The greatest amount raised by any one
class during the year was $39 70.
After the reading of the reports the
song. “Worthy of the Lamb,” was sung,
after which Miss Belle Pacetti recited in
a very pleasing manner, “Never Say Fail.”
The school then sang:
To the heavenly Jerusalem
Thev are singing as they go:
And the King thereof shall welcome them.
For He loves. He loves them so.
Through the open, pearly portals
bounds the wondrous new-made song.
And the anthems of immortals
Greet the happy pilgrim throng.
At the conclusion of the singing, Miss
Irene Miseally very prettily recited a
selection entitled "Never Mind.”
Mr. R. B. Reppard, the veteran Sunday
school worker, was present, and, called
upon by the pastor, gave an interest
ing talk to the school and the congrega
tion, and awakened their minds to the
necessity for action in the great vineyard
of Christian work. At the conclusion of
his remarks a collection, amounting to
nearly $.30, was taken up for the school
library fund.
A memorial was then read by Miss
Belle Theus upon the death of two little
members of the school, Willie Kellum
and Gussie Francis, who died during the
year. A beautiful floral monument in
the shape of a cross upon a inundation of
rocks was erected underneath one of the
arches and was inscribed to their mem
ory. With this the exercises were con
cluded, aud after the doxology had been
sung the congregation was dismissed
with the benediction by the pastor.

The Macon Tournament.
The cavalry review and tilt at Macon
seems to be an assured fact for the 28th
and 2£tli of May. A thousand dollars, it
is stated, have been raised for the prizes.
A letter from the managers states it will
be the grandest cavalry frolic ever held
in Georgia. People from all parts of the
State have flocked to see and been pleased
witn tournaments where fantastic knights
on sorry steeds have punched at rings
with long sticks. This will be a tilt in
which experienced horsemen on their own
fine horses will, in true soldierly style,
give such an exhibition of skill ’as will
charm aud enthuse all who see it. It will
be such au entertainment as will more
than repay the thousands who will come
from hundreds of miles to see it.
THE INTER-STATE ENCAMPMENT.
What a Representative of the Drill Says
About It—Some of the Companies En
tered—The Rules and Prizes—The
Managers’ Invitation to Savannah.
Mr. W. A. Childress, representing the
Grand Encampment and Inter-State Drill,
to take place in Houston, Texas, the sec
ond week in May, is in the city waiting
upon the military. Mr. Childress assured a
Morning News reporter that it will be the
largest encampment ever yet held. Ten
thousand dollars in prizes are offered, and
already twenty companies have stated
positively they will be on hand.
“From* what places?” inquired the re
porter.
•From Nashville. Memphis, St. Louis,
Washington City. New Orleans. Mobile,
Montgomery, Tuscaloosa. Columbus and
Atlanta. These cities will be represented
without a doubt.”
••The board of managers,” added Mr.
Childress, “are very anxious that Savan
nah shall send at least one company, if
not two. Every effort is being made to make
the drill a grand success in every respect.
“The railroad iare for the round trip from
here will not lie more than $lB, and a com
pany of 30 men could make the round trip j
for about $23 each, which is certainly rea- j
sonable. In addition to the companies trom
all parts of the Union, two companies
from Mexico will give an exhibition drill, j
which will be an interesting feature,
especially to the visitors.”
••What'crack companies have already
entered?”
“The Mobile Rifles will be present, and
probably the Crescent City Rifles, of New
Orleans". The Chickasaw Guards, the
Treadway Rifles, and a number of other
companies which participated in the
Nashville drill will be on hand.
••We expect the drill will surpass the
one libld in Nashville last year in every
way. The programme will be made up at
West l’oiut, and may include every
movement in the ‘school of the Soldier’
and ‘school of the Company,’ excluding
•Bayonet Exercise’ and ‘skirmish Drill.’
The judges will be competent United
States army officers, and will be selected
by the General Managers aud afterwards
api>ointed bv the War Department.
••The rules governing the drill provide
that the minimum number of each com
! pany entering shall consist of one captain,
two lieutenants, two guides and twenty
\ four men (six fours), who shall drill
| strictly in accordance with Upton's Re
vised Tactics; the time allowed for each
I company in competitive drill will be forty
rive minutes, counting from the time the
first movement on the programme is com
menced by the company, after insi>ection
of company on the drill ground.
“The programme w ill lie handed cap
tains of companies one hour before the
arrival of time for their respective com
mands to drill, and each commanding offi
cer must obligate himself not to divulge
the contents of the programme to anyone
outside of his command until the drill is
over, and at the completion of his drill to
return programme to the judges.
••These are the rules in regard to num
bers. time aud programme.
“The managers expect Georgia to be
represented, and are anxious especially
that Savannah should be on the list."
Mr. Childress is visiting all the princi
pal cities in the Southern and Western
States. He is in a position to give any
eompany all the information that can be
desired." He will call upon the military
to-day, aud will leave for Charleston to
night. From a circular presented by him
the following information as to rules and
prizes is taken:
Infantry —
First prize $5,060
Second prize 1,500
Tliii and prize . . 500
A rtil'ery — .
First prize $ 730

RAILROAD RUMBLINGS.
Bright Flashes of Intelligence from Near
aud Afar.
The Carnesville Railroad is completed
to Double Branch creek, six miles from
Carnesville.
The survey has been made and the grad
ing of the Wrighteville and Tennille Rail
road is being vigorously carried on from
Tennille. Grading will "also commence at
the Wrightsviile end of the route in a few
days.
The work of narrowing the gauge of the
Walton Railroad from Social Circle to
Monroe has commenced, and will be pros
ecuted with great vigor. In consequence
ot this there will lie no trains over the
road to-day.
The Gainesville lire says: “The East
Gainesvlle Florida Improvement Com
pany offer the right of way and all neces
sary land for side tracks, depot, etc.,
through thesr land parallel with the Tran
sit Railway. In the event that the Row
land’s Bluff Railroad comes through Main
street, it is stated the County Commis
sioners will favor the removal of the
court house from its present site, as the
noise, dust and smoke will be very annoy
ing.”
A meeting of the Southern Railway As
sociation is” announced to lie held at At
lanta March 18. Among other subjects
this meeting will consider the differences
between Southern cities as per instruc
tions of the Executive Committee, and
statistics sbowiug business from each
Southern city will be submitted. Two
representatives of the board of trade or
chamber of commerce of each Southern
city are invited to attend a session of the
committee on Wednesday, March 19.
The Quitman Free Press of Saturday
says: “Mr. Wells, chief engineer of the
Macon and Florida narrow gauge, arrived
at Quitman on Tuesday last and spent
two days prospecting in this county. An
intorraal meeting of the citizens was held
on Wednesday night, several speeches
were made and much enthusiasm was ex
hibited. Brooks county will give more
than any other county to have the rail
road come this way. Mr. Wells acknowl
edges that the route to Quitman passes
through much the best country. The sur
vey will now be made direct" from Quit
man to Macon.”
The annual meeting of the stockhold
ers of ihe Green Cove Springs and Mel
rose Railroad was held at the company’s
office on March 3, 1884, and the following
Board of Directors were elected: A. F.
Vogelbach, ot Melrose: R. B. Canova, of
Green Cove Springs: J. C. Greeley, of
Jacksonville; John W. Ashby,of Gaines
ville; Thomas J. Mcßae, of" Hawthorn, j
The board will meet on the third Monday j
in this month to organize by electing a
President. Secretary, Treasurer and At
torney. The company will maintain its
organization pending the litigation which
has caused the appointment of a Re
ceiver.
A Disgraceful Scene.
About 4 o’clock yesterday afternoon a
number of small white boys were engaged
in ‘‘rocking” a poor demented colored man
falimiarly known as Capt. Peck, who was
quietly passing along St. Julian street,
near Montgomery, interfering with no one.
The boys, in pelting him with rocks,
struck him several times, severely endan
gering his life and that of pedestrians on
the street. This scene occurred in front
of the First Airican Baptist Church.
There was no policeman in the locality to
stop the disorderly conduct. Among the
boys were recoguized some from the fami
lies ot city officers. These youngsters in
violation of the law are deserving of the
strict attention of their parents and the
punishment of the law.
A Schooner Blown Out to Sea.
A week ago. Saturday. Mr. Chess. Sex
ton, of the pilot-boat “Pet,” boarded at
sea the schooner Geo. L. Fessenden, laden
with guano and oil and bound for this
port. A strong wind was blowing off
shore at the time and the vessel was un
able to get iu to Tybee, but was blown out
to sea. No anxiety is felt by the pilots,
as similar occurrences are frequently re
ported.

Letter from a Female Phyilclan.
194 Second Avenue,)
New York. May 1, 1883. f
My specialty is diseases of women and
children. I like Allcock’s Porous Plas
ters because they are so quick and effici
ent, and never irritate or mark the ten
derest skin. 1 have found them most use
ful in my practice, and they are certainly
the best plasters now made. To illustrate:
My son of ten years of age took a bad cold
and coughed incessantly; no medicine
would relieve him: after some twelve
hours I applied an Allcock’s Porous Plas
ter to his throat and upper chest. The
cough ceased entirely in an hour, and the
next day the boy was well.
I told the case to a gentleman who suf
fered in the same way; he. too, was cur
ed in twenty-four hours of his cough by
Alleock’s Porous Plasters. Another pa
tient suffered from paiu in the small of
the back—Allcock’s Porous Plaster was
applied at night, and next morning the
pain had ceased. Again, a young lady
suffering from Neuralgic Pains around
the heart, by inv advice used Allcock s
Porous Plasters," and was entirely cured
in three davs. Finally, a lady came to
me with Cold Feet, which constantly re
■ curred night and day—this sometimes
| is a svmptom of Uterine Congestion I
applied an Allcock’s Porous Plaster to
the sold of each foot, and here feet got and
j continued warm. She wore the Plasters
over a week.
Thus I have recently tried Allcock s
Porous Plasters, and take great pleasure
1 in bearing witness to their remarkable
curative power.

Plasters; buy no other and you will not be
cheated.

There are Some who Can't Wait.
For the benefit of those who may desire
to anticipate the season a little, it might
prove opportune to state that although
Mr. Mitchell has gone to New York to
personally superintend the getting out ot
the main portion of his Spring Stock of
Gents', Youths’, and Boys’ tine tailor
made Clothing, he has left behind him
some selections of Spring Clothing that
have just come in, so that the impatient
ones will find somethin , already on his
counters to please them. Some of the
winter goods still remain and will be dis
posed of at “dirt cheap” figures to make
room for the heavy lines of Spring Goods
to come, and in this short interval some
of the most notable bargains ever offered
in Savannah may be had. Call and in
spect the stock whether you want to pur
chase or not. We can discuss the
“weather” and the “trade aspect” if no
thing else. No trouble to find the huge

Put It to the Test.
Two friends (we will call them John
and Dick) met casually and both had new
suits on. John bought his at the
“Famous" and was very much pleased.
Dick bought his elsewhere, and not being
a judge of clothing thought his suit just
as good. The Famous says, put the two
suits to the test, wait three months, and
we wager that the “ Famous ” suit, for less
money, wear better and look better than
any clothes bought elsewhere. We have
often seen it and know it for a fact. Our
goods are all manufactured by us for our
trade; nothing is too good for our trade,
and there is as much difference between
our clothing and the ready-made goods
made for appearance to sell to retailers
as between day aud night. We can free

“O, wad some power the giftie gie us
To see oursels as ithers see us.”
Or again, the poet might be effectually
quoted as follows:
“Neat, trimly drest,
Fresh as a bridegroom, and his rhin new
reaped,
Showed like a stubble-land at harvest home.”

The Harnett House, Savannah.
The wonder of those who go to the Har
nett House, in Savannah, is that so excel
lent a table and such comfortable rooms
can be offered to the public at such mini
mum rates. Without exaggeration, the
table of the Harnett is as good as that of
the Screven House, and the rates just one
half as large. Courteous treatment makes
up the sum of its attractions. The public
largely testified their appreciation.—
